Eat Little Almonds
Chapter 679 Escaping the Xing Family
He had gone out of his way to help Bai Shiyan win back Qian Xian'er, and how did Bai Shiyan repay him?
He didn't even bother to take him along when he ran away! What a great uncle he was!
Qiao Yu couldn't help grinding his teeth. The next second, he felt several bone-chilling gazes locking onto him.
Without a doubt, the owners of these gazes were all pseudo-god-level old monsters hidden within the Xing family.
Every hair on Qiao Yu's body stood on end.
The guests present also turned their attention to Qiao Yu.
Some eyes were filled with pity, some with anger, and some with schadenfreude.
"Everyone... if I said that Bai Shiyan and I don't really have a relationship, that we're not familiar, would you believe me?" Qiao Yu forced a smile that was worse than crying.
"What do you think?"
One of the Xing family elders narrowed his eyes and leaned towards Qiao Yu, his eyes filled with anger.
"Then... is it too late for me to apologize?" Qiao Yu looked troubled.
"Apologize? Go to hell and apologize!" The Xing family elder sneered, and four or five Xing family guards immediately surrounded Qiao Yu.
"So there's no room for negotiation? Then I'll just test all of your codes!"
Qiao Yu's pair of deep blue ghost eyes instantly lit up.
"Ghost Eye Dream Demon!"
The stolen goods came in handy. The illusion created by the Ghost Eye Dream Demon instantly dragged everyone into it.
However, creating so many illusions at once was extremely draining for Qiao Yu.
He let out a muffled groan. His ghost eyes went blind temporarily, and his brain felt like it was being pierced by thousands of steel needles, causing him unbearable pain.
But in order to escape, Qiao Yu couldn't care less.
While the Xing family members were trapped in the illusion, Qiao Yu threw out a large handful of Netherworld fire and turned to flee.
The Netherworld fire burned fiercely within the Xing family, the blazing flames distorting the void.
"How dare you!"
"Now that you're here, don't even think about leaving!"
A terrifying golden hand stretched out from the depths of the Xing family, grabbing towards Qiao Yu.
This was a pseudo-god-level expert's divine sense leaving the body, its speed unbelievably fast, arriving in front of Qiao Yu in an instant.
"Little Lian!"
Qiao Yu roared, and the Purgatory Corpse King rushed out of the undead space.
Bang!
The Purgatory Corpse King only exchanged one blow with the golden hand before the entire corpse was sent flying. Then the golden hand struck down at Qiao Yu again.
"Undead Swap!"
Qiao Yu seized the opportunity and immediately swapped positions with the Purgatory Corpse King.
The one flying towards the starry sky became Qiao Yu, while the Purgatory Corpse King was just covered by the big hand.
"Qiao Yu! You son of a...! You bastard, you...!"
The Purgatory Corpse King's face instantly turned green. He really couldn't understand why Qiao Yu had to provoke opponents so much stronger than himself every time.
Provoke them if you want, but why do I always have to clean up your messes?
The Purgatory Corpse King struggled to resist, then the entire corpse was sent flying, disappearing into the depths of the starry sky like a shooting star.
However, this delay successfully bought Qiao Yu a chance to escape.
He rode the Underworld Bone Dragon King and immediately flew towards the Bai family.
"You rat, don't even think about leaving!"
The golden hand was relentless, continuing to chase after Qiao Yu.
Although the Underworld Bone Dragon King's speed was very fast, it was ultimately no match for the divine sense of a pseudo-god-level expert.
Soon they were about to be caught up by the golden hand again.
At this moment, Qiao Yu saw Bai Shiyan holding Qian Xian'er standing not far away. Qian Xian'er was looking at him with a worried expression, while Bai Shiyan was looking at Qian Xian'er with a doting expression.
"Xian'er, look, I told you there was no need to worry about him, didn't he escape? When have I ever lied to you?" Bai Shiyan said gently.
"Shiyan, you're still the best." Qian Xian'er smiled shyly.
Qiao Yu almost spat out a mouthful of old blood. I'm risking my life to escape, and you two are flirting here?
If he could beat Bai Shiyan, Qiao Yu really wanted to ram this guy to death with a Shoulder Strike.
"Stop talking nonsense! Save me!" Qiao Yu exclaimed.
Bai Shiyan turned his head, and after seeing Qiao Yu, he frowned and looked at the golden hand.
"In the Xing family, I'm naturally not your opponent, but your divine sense has traveled so far, it's a different story."
Bai Shiyan stepped forward, his five fingers clenched together, and the whistling power of his flowing water fist caused the heavens and earth to shake and the stars to fall.
Then he suddenly punched the golden hand.
The owner of the golden hand let out a muffled groan filled with anger, and then the golden hand instantly retracted.
"Bai family! Bai Shiyan, Qiao Yu! The Xing family will never rest until we're dead with you!"
From the depths of the Xing family, a terrifying roar that shook the heavens and earth resounded.
The entire Yiyun Star trembled under the shroud of this voice.
Snatching the Xing family's wedding in front of all the forces in the Ninth Universe, and even killing the groom, Xing Wudi.
The Xing family had truly lost both face and fortune this time.
If the Xing family swallowed this insult, then they could forget about ever having any standing again.
However, facing the Xing family's threat, Bai Shiyan remained calm and looked at Qiao Yu coldly.
"Let's go, this place isn't far from the Xing family yet, be careful they chase after us."
Then he turned his head and said gently to Qian Xian'er.
"Xian'er, let's go."
Qiao Yu couldn't hold it in anymore.
"Damn it, Bai Shiyan, it's one thing that you didn't call me when you ran away, but now you're treating us differently, right?"
"What did you call me?"
Bai Shiyan narrowed his eyes, and a terrifying pressure instantly enveloped Qiao Yu.
"I haven't settled the score with you yet. You were the one who came up with the terrible idea of letting Xian'er marry Xing Wudi, right?"
"So what if I came up with it? If I hadn't come up with such a good idea, would you have been able to make up your mind?" Qiao Yu rolled his eyes.
"Hmph!" Bai Shiyan snorted coldly. "Do you really think I can't see through your little plan?"
"You just wanted to use my hand to start a war between the Xing family and the Bai family, so as to relieve Kaiji Star."
Qiao Yu, whose inner thoughts had been seen through, shrugged indifferently. Anyway, the matter had already happened, so it didn't matter if Bai Shiyan knew.
"You're too young, Qiao Yu. The game between top forces isn't as simple as you think," Bai Shiyan shook his head.
"Could it be that the Xing family can tolerate this?" Qiao Yu frowned.
"Of course they can't, but the Xing family's revenge will only be directed at the two of us, and it's impossible for them to directly start a war with the Bai family."
A hint of disdain appeared on Bai Shiyan's face.
"What do you think the Bai family relies on to be the head of the three great families? It's not like we didn't beat the Ye family and the Xing family into submission one by one."
"And..."
Bai Shiyan changed the subject and said quietly.
"You don't think that the only one lying in our Bai family's ancestral hall is the Ninth Ancestor, do you?"
